    Carol and Gerry make you feel at home. I spent a lovely time with them. If I had to search for a house again, I would stay in there. I had nice chats with them and they always worried about me and took care.
    Highly recommended!
    Hope to see them again.

    I stayed here with Carol and Ger for two weeks. I live in Dublin and it wouldn't be a surprise to say that Irish people are genuinely nice. My stay with them was very good, made me feel like a home. The house is beautiful, clean and comfortable to live in as they made me feel very comfortable in the house. I felt like I was in my own house. I had no issue travelling to city as the bus stop is only 4 mins walk from the place. I will miss the time spent with Carol and Ger in the house. Thanks, Carol and Ger.

    We stayed in Dublin for 5 days and it was an amazing experience! Carol and his husband Gerry are amazing, they helped us with everything we needed, always there for a chat, they're really welcoming we felt like home. The house is in a quiet neighborhood about 25/30 minute from city center, easily reached by bus, it's beautiful, clean and worm, absolutely comfortable. We recommend this host to whoever wants to spend their time in Dublin. We really enjoyed our time with them!
